High quality upholstery nails and fasteners are used every day to line seams and add a finishing touch to chairs, valances, sofas and headboards among other furnishings that are central to home decoration. For this reason, Nostalgia offers up to 50 different designs of German-quality, corrosion-resistant upholstery nails and fasteners in stock, from smooth modern metallic’s to classic antique finishes of all shapes, colors and sizes.

Additionally, for those interested in a specific nail or fastener in quantities, we work directly with the manufacturer to make fasteners to your specifications. The heads themselves are available in hundreds of options, and the bottom shaft can be a standard nail, serrated, double pronged, looped back, or serrated with a washer. The options for custom orders are limited only by your imagination, and of course, the quantity ordered.

A Schumacher WingWe're proud to announce the arrival of new 2009 storyboard designs featuring the latest in color and design trends from Schumacher and Kravet in our wing sections. From Kravet we see the in-style collection of greys, as well as variation on the theme in this popular color set. From Schumacher we're seeing their signature collections of very bright, very vivid colors mixed in with a touch of grey.

For those new to the concept of storyboards it is simply a fun way of arranging fabrics in a very visible way that provides a set of pre-arranged coordinates that can be used as a launching point for a design.

Oversized openings are no longer a problem without solution in the Republic of Panama thanks to our distributorship of Executive Screens by Phantom Screens, the number one name in retractable screening solutions in North America.

Executive Screens are motorized screens meant to cover high and wide openings which a manual retractable insect or solar screen could not. This allows for you to enclose an area when insects or the sun is out, and pull the screen up when the area is not in use, or if it is simply not needed.

But beyond that Executive Screens are really without equal in the screening business, and this month we will explain why.

1. Size

Executive Screens can reach a width of 21 feet, or 640cm, something no other rolling solution on the local or even international market can boast. This is partly due to the unique design of the tube the Executive rolls onto, which is specially designed to be thicker and sturdier than anything available, which among many factors, allows for wide and long pieces of fabric to operate in ideal conditions.

2. Recessed Applications

April has seen the arrival of new fabrics to our 2009 collection, including the latest color trends in silvered grays. Sample some of the new fabrics on our showroom storyboards.

Stainless Steel RodsFor years the only option in Panama for decorative rods were the standard plastic packaged metal and wood rods widely available hardware stores. Local decoration stores figured that if somebody wanted to spend more than $30 on a rod, they'd pay a premium, custom order it and wait a month or two for it.

Well, Leave it to Nostalgia to not underestimate the taste of the Panamanian public. Our wood, bamboo, faux wood and stainless steel rods come with a variety of finials all in stock. Our collections will cover most any style, from rustic, to modern, to far more rococo decoration that has been a mainstay in the Panamanian market. And for those of you by extra wide applications, most of the collections have hardware that allows for the rods to cover most any window.

Laura Ashley in PinkLaura Ashley remains one of Nostalgia's strongest cut order brands for those looking for something soft and colorful. The brand, which is composed mostly of prints on natural fabrics that trade in soft color sets make it popular because they remain perennially relevant- a Laura Ashley fabric is as pertinent today as it was forty years ago and will be for years to come.
